At more than 400 years old, the historic Mirabell Palace of Salzburg, Austria, has seen destruction and restoration, as a collection of influences and architects shaped it into the impressive structure that it is today.
In the early 19th century, the palace was remodeled and restored in the Neoclassical style while the palace’s walls shelter famous interiors that are refined examples of Baroque architecture. Artisans and sculptors, such as Georg Raphael Donner, collaborated on the palace’s ornamentation. The ornamentation of interior elements serves to complement, rather than detract from, its Neoclassical facade.
